Biotech and Environment – exchange students
The Faculty of Life Sciences at Campus Bergedorf is the second-largest faculty at HAW Hamburg and offers a wide range of engineering programmes in environmental engineering, biomedical engineering, pharmaceutical biotechnology and process engineering. It focuses especially on teaching and research on renewable energies and environmental engineering, and has an Energy Campus for research. This also reflects the city of Hamburg's strategic focus on renewable energies.
Each summer semester (April–July) exchange students from our partner universities can gain insight into this expertise by taking the following classes in English at Campus Bergedorf:
Biotech and Environment – undergraduate courses in English
